Complaining About the Hartford Road
meeting of citizens was held at Halls Springs
Hcte few days ago, to take into consideration
the alleged bad condition of the Hartford turnpike
road. Mr.. Chas. II. Knox was chairman and Mr..
Joseph German, secretary. There was a general
expression of views of those present, all in con-
demnation of the road. A committee was ap-
pointed to wait on Hon. George Hawkins Will
liams, president of the company, as follows: John
List, Leonard Lang, Julius W. Knox and Isaac
Fuller. The committee was directed to express
their dissatisfaction at the condition of the turn
pike and see what will be done towards putting
the road in good order.
Mr. Williams, when seen with reference to the
meeting above alluded to, said that the Hartford
pike was in as good condition as any turnpike
of repair, he admitted, but said that very little
repairing could be done during the winter. The
reason the road had been cut up was because
large wagons, with narrow tired wheels, carried
more weight than the three tons allowed by law,
but there was way of proving it, it had to be
allowed until recently, when the company erected
a large set of scales of the gates for the
purpose of having weighed all wagons that were
suspected of carrying heavier burdens than is
lawful. Those in the habit of having these heavy
loads hauled, he said, held the meeting to COM
plain of it. The road will be thoroughly repaired
in the spring, he says.
Little Bills.-On this subject an exchange
makes the following sensible remarks: "Now is
the time when the January bills are to be expect
ed and when they come in rapidly. Every pru-
dent man who can has prepared himself for this
visitation. Big bills and little bills are all fut-
tering in now and they should be paid as prompt
ly and speedily as possible.
"Not only would the debtor be considering the
convenience of the people who have trusted him,
but would be adding largely to the general busi-
ness activity by paying up at once. Many busi-
nesses may be seriously affected by the withhold
ing of even little bill. Many weak concern
may be kept alive by the timely revenue from
those who owe comparatively small sums. Every
citizen, therefore, should make it rule to pay up
as soon after the first of January as possible. 1t
puts money in circuation-money which must lie
idle otherwise; since if it is prudently provided
for the payment of debts it cannot earn anything
for its possessor and had better be in the pockets
fits rightful owners. Money thus put out comes
back very soon. Itpasses into the hands of your
CREDITOR and from him to his creditor, and from
that person to you again in the payment of what
is due you. Thus it circuates and oil get the
benefit of it.
"Money was originally made round to go around
and the way to make it best perform its mission
is to pay it over to the active hands which have
earned it."
